Hi john 😉🤟🏴‍☠️ nice to meet you 🤝
You raise a crucial point criticizing existing systems is easy, but we need to think critically about the alternatives we create. A privatized TSA might remove some of the inefficiencies of government bureaucracy, but it could also introduce an entirely new set of risks, particularly around data privacy, corporate overreach, and lack of accountability.
AI-driven risk ratings sound efficient in theory, but as we’ve seen in other industries, they often lead to opaque, unchallengeable black-box decisions that disproportionately harm certain groups. And once a company accumulates vast pools of personal data, the temptation to monetize it or the risk of it being compromised becomes almost inevitable.
History suggests that privatized security firms wouldn’t necessarily be better at preventing breaches or respecting civil liberties. Instead, they could end up operating with even less transparency and oversight than government agencies. The key question is: how do we build a security model that balances efficiency, accountability, and privacy, rather than simply replacing one flawed system with another that could be even worse?
